They were running trade in bonus though for stuff traded in. I would go ahead of time and trade that stuff in towards the games and accessories you want so you get the 50% bump if that is still going today. And then buy the system outright. This will net you better value for the games/system.
Do we know that figure for certain at this point? As of yesterday my local GS didn't have their stock yet so they weren't certain what they were going to have beyond pre-orders.
Thanks for this. I called two locations. One said they were getting four extra and the other said he didn't they were getting any extra but he wasn't sure. I'll definitely trade in the X1 before launch.
For real? So, you are saying I could go up there Thursday around 6pm or after and purchase a Switch. Then swing by at midnight and pick it up? That would be perfect. Can anyone else confirm if this is possible?
That's what my GS said they're doing, except they told me they could check people through starting at 9pm, so maybe check with your store? I suppose it could be a time lock in the registers and my 9pm is 6pm in a different time zone?
No
Yeah, GS always does this, as it would be utter chaos to try and do all kinds of side transactions at midnight. As most people want to pay and go, ASAP!
Honestly, he seemed very much like Bill actually. Now talk about a bad host, did you watch that NISA show last week? I could barely get through with the guy they had, I turned several times because he was just way over the top. LOL
That looked rather cool actually, as I loved those fighters on the NeoGeo Pocket back in the day. The only thing missing back then was online for Vs battles, as the fighters where damn good for two button controls.
I feel Nintendo sees common ground with indie developers in that they both prioritize fun gameplay and wacky ideas over trying to be bigger and bombastic. That's why I like indie games, anyway, and that's why I continue to tolerate Nintendo despite their annoyances; there just plain fun.
Yeah, that pretty much summarizes how I feel. Although I'm a bit on the extreme end, as I have so very little interest in most AAA games these days. I spent too many years of life cranking out boring 3D asset after 3D asset for those types of games, they're ruined for me now. So seeing indie games with the incredibly diverse game types, art styles, love and creativity that's put into them just makes me enjoy them so much more.
Wait... Pocket Rumble has been on PC for a bit now? How did I not know this? Well, with a March release date, at least I get a fighter in the 1st month.
I'd get a 128gb (Sandisk Ultra or Samsung Evo Select), it's the best price to space ratio available right now ($40). That should last you quite a while, then if you need to you can get another, or simply upgrade to a larger card once they're cheaper.
True in some ways, but frustratingly not true in many other ways.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic, but I think a few here bought it mainly because they anticipated low stock numbers.
I mean, I imagine all of these games are TEENY, so I would imagine you wouldn't. However I did get a Samsung 128 class 10 for $36
On the whole, yes. The majority of indie games do tend to be quite a bit smaller than your average big-budget titles. But there's also a fairly broad range of file sizes for indie games. Most indie games don't go above about a gigabyte. A few rare instances will bump into the two or three gigabyte range, but that's fairly uncommon. And a few indie games don't exceed 100 megabytes. Retro City Rampage, for instance, was designed to only take up about 32 megabytes.
Holy mother of Gog do I want this to happen
You forgot one:This is where we now enter the territory of the five main phases of replies that everyone loves the most!
1. When does XXXX charge my card posts
2. my shipment is preparing posts
3. my order has shipped posts
4. my package came today posts
5. my box came dented complaint posts
you WISH we were still having back-and-forth discussion about the Switch system!
As someone who works at Best Buy, I hate thisYou forgot one:
6. Best Buy just emailed me that my Switch stuff is ready for pickup. Do you think they will let me pick it up now???
BestBuy. MIght get here Thursday since I got 2 day shipping from BB. Switch from BB hasn't shipped yet tho.
From reports on this thread, Gamestop's should have a handful of extras (less than ten) while Best Buys seem to be getting at least ten extra at launch, and in some cases, much more. You should get good if you go to a midnight release.
Looks like Best Buy and Target may be your best shot based on posts earlier in the thread.... GameStop only if you are willing to fight to the death to be 1st in line...
Good to know. I'm going to swing by a Best Buy on my way home from work and ask. Thanks!
